INSERTION OF THE TUBES
WARNING
DISCONNECT the AC Detachable Power Cord
from the Processor 3 Power Supply before
removing the Processor chassis cover.
Please read and follow these instructions carefully. Great care was
taken in the testing, selection and matching of the supplied tubes in
order to ensure proper operation of the unit. Failure to follow these
instructions will cause this processor to suffer in performance and
sound quality.
6. Once all the tubes are installed, no other adjustments or installation of any other parts is necessary. Replace the Top Cover,
and using the Phillips screw driver, fill all the screw positions with
the screws provided. There are extra screws provided in case you
misplace a few.
Note: Partially install the screws, then go back and tighten them all. Do not over-tighten.
7. You have now completed the preliminary steps of setup before
your listening pleasure will begin.

The Processor 3 is supplied with four 6922 (6DJ8-type) tubes individually boxed.
1. In order to install the tubes, use the supplied Phillips screw driver
and remove the top cover of the main chassis. For your convenience,
only a few screws were installed at the factory to facilitate the easy
removal of the Top Covers.
2. When handling the tubes, it is recommended the cotton gloves
provided be worn to prevent skin oils from depositing on the glass surface. Find the tubes appropriate for your processor, boxed in the
packaging storage compartment.

3. Inspect the tubes for code markings. They will be labeled
individually, each with one of the following designations: V1 - V4.
4. Now examine the printed circuit board (PCB) above the tube sockets in the Processor 3 for the designations matching the designations
on the tubes (See Figure 4 for further clarification).
5. Take the V1 tube and examine the pins noting the large space
between two of the pins. This space will align with the same larger space between two of the pin holes on the socket. Insert the V1
tube into the V1 tube socket, making sure all pins and pin holes
are aligned (see Figure 5). Do not force the tube into the socket.
Rock the tube gently while pushing slowly until the tube is firmly
seated. Repeat this step for the remaining tubes, V2 tube to the V2
tube socket, V3 tube to the V3 tube socket, V4 tube to the V4
tube socket.
Note the larger space
between two of the pins and
holes for proper alignment
of tube and socket.
